Christopher Lamb 4 Ravens Perch Bryan, Tx 77808 979 -218 -2378 paramediccml@gmail.com This submittal is a request for authorization of UAS operation for Videography/ P hotographic purposes. This exemption will only be used for a professional production company . The production company specializes in video production of cinematic films, documentaries, real - estate videos, and commercials. If allowed by the FAA I would offer local emergency assi stance within our region. I also am a Firefighter/Paramedic for the City of Bryan . I will extend the offer for the Fire Department to contact me in the event they need UAS assistance with any wildland fires, or search and rescue events. I understand this i s granted on a case by case basis per section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012. All UAS operations will be line of site and all FAA regulations will be followed at all times. Qualifications: Flight Paramedic for CHI/St. Joseph Hospital in Bryan AMRAM Safety certified and maintained annually Being a flight Paramedic I am consistent with FAA regulations on a daily basis which operating as a member of a medical flight crew of a Bell 407

. Career Firefighter/Paramedic Haz- Mat certified I have been flying small (under 10 lbs ) UAV for approximately 3 years.Equipment:

(Registered with the FAA) DJI Phantom 3 Gold/Professional Edition quad rotor, battery operated. D ual control is provided, one for me to position the vehicle and one for the operator of the camera for added safety in awareness . The camera operator is locked out of b eing able to move the vehicle. The software for the vehicle allows for hands off stabilization and position maintenance, ei ther by GPS or optical /ultrasonic means. It also forces the vehicle to return to a user definable home if control is lost or interrupted for greater than 10 seconds and includes verbal warning if either condi tion occurs. Low battery warning occurs when th e vehicle has a software defined margin required to return to the home location. A verbal warning is utilized also. DJI has defined approximately 10,000 airports where various degrees of caution are required. These range from on screen soft shaded areas to solid red and cannot fly in others. The shaded areas are visible on the controllers screen. DJI.com has a complete set of parameters that can be viewed on this Web site. In my opinion, this should be the minimum equipment required for safe and productive use. Procedures: The procedures I use are: Obtain permission of the property owner. In case of a listing for a property for sale, the listing document has permission in writing. Advise the camera operator that the drone has to be within sight at all tim es. This gives two sight paths to position the vehicle so as not to strike items such as trees and bushes and maintain clearance from the item to be photographed. Any observers/property owners witnessing the operation are advised regarding the hazards of close proximity to the vehicle. I request that pets be secured.No operations will be conducted over crowed areas.

Battery charging capabilities are present on site. Either from the owner’s power or my own vehicle. This permits the operation to be accompl ished in one sitting. A short test flight is conducted in an area away from obstructions to ascertain the effect of local winds. If hands off stabilization and position maintenance can be demonstrated, the session can continue. A home site is designated a t every site, by user programmable means, to facilitate the low battery or loss of communications automatic return. A complete pre -flight inspection of the UAS equipment and functionality will be completed and recorded. A complete log of every flight will be kept in detail.
